2-(R)-hydroxypropyl-CoM + NAD+ = 2-oxopropyl-CoM + NADH + H+
The enzyme is highly specific for (R)-2-hydroxyalkyl thioethers of CoM, in contrast to EC 1.1.1.269, 2-(S)-hydroxypropyl-CoM dehydrogenase, which is highly specific for the (S)-enantiomer. This enzyme forms component III of a four-component enzyme system. Comprising EC 4.2.99.19, 2-hydroxypropyl-CoM lyase, component I, EC 1.8.1.5, 2-oxopropyl-CoM reductase, carboxylating, component II, EC 1.1.1.268, 2-(R)-hydroxypropyl-CoM dehydrogenase, component III, and EC 1.1.1.269, 2-(S)-hydroxypropyl-CoM dehydrogenase, component IV, that is involved in epoxylalkane carboxylation in Xanthobacter sp. strain Py2

R-HPCDH1 can bind either enantiomer of hydroxypropyl-CoM with the CoM moiety oriented properly in the sulfonate-binding pocket consisting of R152 and R196. A high-affinity ternary complex of S-HPC, NAD+ forms, but the misalignment of the hydrogen and hydroxyl groups on C2 relative to NAD+ and the tyrosine general base results in a 403-fold lower turnover rate for the S-enantiomer

structural basis for stereospecificity of R-HPCDH, comparison to S-HPCDH, EC 1.1.1.269, overview. Placement of catalytic residues within the active site of each enzyme is nearly identical, structural differences in the surrounding area provide each enzyme with a distinct substrate binding pocket
additional information
structure-function relationship, active site structure modeling and stereochemistry of reaction mechanism, overview. The C-terminal domains of SDR enzymes are responsible for imparting substrate specificity. Two arginine residues, R152 and R196, play a key role in substrate binding and stereoselectivity of enzyme R-HPCDH. R152 and R196 bind the sulfonate of 2-oxopropyl-CoM (2-KPC)
